Simon Garner column: Wait until January for more signings

IF we were to start the season with the squad we’ve got now I’d be satisfied.

We’ve kept the players we wanted to keep, getting David Dunn and Jordan Rhodes to sign new contracts, brought three squad players in for competition, and got rid of some of the deadwood.

So if I was Gary Bowyer I’d be tempted to say, ‘no, that’s enough for now’, and hang fire until January and see where we are then.

If he needs to dive back in the market then – and his budget allows him to do so – that will be the time to do it.

I know there is a suggestion that we still need a right back but I think we’re pretty covered there now with Alex Baptiste coming in to rival Adam Henley and also having Jason Lowe to play there.

I think bringing Alex in is a good move and I think he will prove to be a canny signing.

I remember him best as a centre back for Blackpool but he can also play right back and, at a push, left back it seems too.

I see we’re being linked with goalkeepers again but for me I think we’ve already got a good number one in Paul Robinson.

All right he’s not getting any younger but he’s got the experience and in what is still a youngish squad that could be invaluable.

I don’t think the back-ups are too bad either and that’s why I’d be tempted to stick with the three keepers we’ve got unless, of course, one of them wants to get out on loan after having a taste of first-team football last season while Robbo was injured.

One player who will definitely be starting the season for us is Jordan Rhodes.

I’m pleased to see he’s signed a new contract because he has earned it. It may be costing Blackburn more in wages but it’s better to have a player like Jordan on contract for as long as you possibly can because if someone does come in, they’re going to have to pay big money.

You could argue that contracts don’t mean a lot in football nowadays – if a player wants to go and kicks up a fuss, he’ll probably go – but the longer a player is on contract the more protection that should give to a club.

I said when Jordan reached 50 goals for Blackburn last season that he could go on to break my goalscoring record for the club – and I still stand by that. If he does go on to better my tally of 194 goals then I would have to turn round, hold my hands up and say, ‘well done’, because not many players hang around at a club that long nowadays.

If Jordan goes on to break my record it’ll mean he’ll have stayed at the club for a long time.

As a convert to the cause, i wish B*rnley were not the sloppy seconds of East Lancashire football.

We should call B*rnley fans "sloppies" from now on.

Keep Darwen Green come back, I/we need you.

Rovers for ever.

...when i move to Shadsworth I'll feel more comfortable with B*rnley being sloppy seconds in everything they do compared to Blackburn Rovers. However, i still share a damp bedsit in Padiham with a pimp from B*rnley who regularly treats me like a rent boy the analogy is a little too close to home. Quite literally.

Rovers for ever.

I think GB has to start this season with a positive belief that he is starting this season with the squad that can get the job done.

I don't think there will be the luxury of thinking we can a buy and improve things at Christmas, we need points in the bag and FFP is still going to have some impact, and to rely on the transfer window being an option would be a serious mistake.

Well we might but so will most of the Championship. Best to get the squad finished now though, just in case.

You seem very quick to knock Mr Garner, so clearly you have some great frame of reference, has anybody ever scored 194 goals playing for Burnley, even when you were bouncing around the lower divisions ?

Cheap comment about a very good forward who never shirked his responsibilities and left a great legacy at Ewood that many fans like myself are proud to have seen him play.

Poor old simple Simon, he has no concept of the financial tsunami about to engulf Blackburn Rovers... they tried to explain it to the shaved ape but it just wont sink it, a bit like the result of the Blackburn Rovers v Burnley game on March the 9th, he simply denies it ever happened.

Simon Gurner doesn't know what day it is, so an explanation including terms such as transfer embargo and financial mismanagement would be like trying to teach a chimp Quantum physics. he's just going to stand there scratching his ar5e looking vacant.

This is my favourite bit....

As opposed to the genius at turf moor that fully comprehend the equation 60 million premiership money= signing what we already had + reserve players from championship + pull the wool over all the burnley fans eyes + even getting away with putting up the season tickets without the numptys even putting up a fight. Steven hawkin would be proud of that one genius.

It's an unfortunate coincidence then that you regularly post negative remarks about Rovers and share a name with the Burnley mascot .

I just LOVE the FFP deny'ers... you clowns are in for a heck of a shock when the BRFC accounts are made public in December. It will be almost as funny to read your desperate pleas for exemption on these very comments pages as it will be to read the figures themselves.....

You have a wage bill that was reported to be well over £30m for the last accounting period. You have reduced the squad numbers by jettisoning a large number of make-weights on low salaries. The high earners you have had to pay to leave at a cost of millions, over £3.5m in actual fact. You've also lost an additional £8m in parachute payments, and added several more players to your squad on upwards of £10k a week, and the icing on the cake..... a 5-year £53,000 a week contract to keep Jordan Rhodes happy..... and you honestly think the controlling body is going to look favourably on this and accept that you have made inroads into reducing your losses?

Face the facts, your club is without doubt a shambles, but the extent of the financial mismanagement is going to be absolutely shocking come December. This is not a Claret wishlist, this is simply a deduction based upon the freely available facts and figures regarding your clubs expenses over the last few seasons.

I bet you wont be saying OOOOPPPPSS in January will you?

We don't know is the simple answer, no-one does.

Look at it this way, if the FA apply the rules in a draconian way around 75% of clubs will face fines and a transfer embargo, they can't just pick on one or two clubs, they have to be even handed, and a lot of clubs are in a much worse financial state than Rovers.

That's sort of like cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Of the remaining 25% or so the majority are barely breaking even, so they won't be able to buy anyone and as clubs in the lower leagues still rely on transfer income to survive the FA will simply have pulled the plug on them.

The FA have painted themselves in a corner with this ill thought out method of applying FFP, I for one can't wait to see what happens.

No just laughing at you as you finally see the light and realise that the Rovers board are just a bit more clever than you...
You are going to be so disappointed, I almost feel sorry for you. Almost but not quite
But as I said earlier, you are just a troll and not worth the effort
Last word from the Wild Rover
Armageddon out of here.......

The Rovers board clever. You couldn't make it up. The disturbing mixture of arrogance and ignorance from the no dads is quite alarming. Wake up guys, smell the coffee, big fat Jack's money has all gone. You will finish no higher than mid table as your slide to the footballing mediocrity you deserve continues. FPP is imminent.

Finally realising that Blackburn won't be facing an embargo in January. Think of all the hours you have wasted trolling about Jordan Rhodes being sold, administration and now FFP all for nothing. OOOOPPPPSS[/p][/quote]I just LOVE the FFP deny'ers... you clowns are in for a heck of a shock when the BRFC accounts are made public in December. It will be almost as funny to read your desperate pleas for exemption on these very comments pages as it will be to read the figures themselves.....
You have a wage bill that was reported to be well over £30m for the last accounting period. You have reduced the squad numbers by jettisoning a large number of make-weights on low salaries. The high earners you have had to pay to leave at a cost of millions, over £3.5m in actual fact. You've also lost an additional £8m in parachute payments, and added several more players to your squad on upwards of £10k a week, and the icing on the cake..... a 5-year £53,000 a week contract to keep Jordan Rhodes happy..... and you honestly think the controlling body is going to look favourably on this and accept that you have made inroads into reducing your losses?
Face the facts, your club is without doubt a shambles, but the extent of the financial mismanagement is going to be absolutely shocking come December. This is not a Claret wishlist, this is simply a deduction based upon the freely available facts and figures regarding your clubs expenses over the last few seasons.

Ummm. Aren't we going to have a transfer embargo in January?

We don't know is the simple answer, no-one does.

Look at it this way, if the FA apply the rules in a draconian way around 75% of clubs will face fines and a transfer embargo, they can't just pick on one or two clubs, they have to be even handed, and a lot of clubs are in a much worse financial state than Rovers.

That's sort of like cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Of the remaining 25% or so the majority are barely breaking even, so they won't be able to buy anyone and as clubs in the lower leagues still rely on transfer income to survive the FA will simply have pulled the plug on them.

The FA have painted themselves in a corner with this ill thought out method of applying FFP, I for one can't wait to see what happens.

It's hardly worth risking it, is it? The fact we are very likely to have a transfer embargo in January means the fact the LT even let this be published is extremely shoddy.

Looks like Simon Garner has headed too many heavy balls in his career. Buy players in January? What planet is he on?
Blackburn aren't buying any players in January because FFP is going to drybum you into submission.
This IS going to happen, the Football League ( of which Blackburn are a member) have voted for this to happen, Venkys along with most of the goons on this site, are sat there with their fingers in their ears singing la la la I am not listening.
Pmsl and then you INCREASE Rhodes' wage??? Fcucking clueless.

The theory behind FFP, is not all that ridiculous in that something needs to be done to curtail 'reckless financial activities'.
However, you have to go back to the root cause of why this is. And the buck stops at the FA's door in grabbing the 'lure' from Sky.
They have created a financial monster that is out of control, and who is going to suffer, the ones striving to succeed and dine at the top table.
This has tipped the balance heavily in favour of the elite 6 or so, who can happily scrap it out for the top honours for the foreseeable.
Yes, before I am educated, BFC have indeed made the leap on the cheap and will deservedly reap the riches, but where are the riches going to end up and what level of cost is it now to attend the Turf (hence the low gates) ?
Re; BFC - Blackpool FC !
It is very 'noble' of KO to stand his ground in decrying the situation, but it still remains - where has their windfall gone??? And what state are they now in despite their success/achievement (as great as the other BFC recently)?

All fine words and theories, but I cannot take the term 'fair' within the FFP title seriously, as in big business (which is what professional football is these days) things are very, very rarely 'fair'.

This applies to all 'lesser clubs' not just BRFC, BFC, BFC, PNE , BWFC etc.

Robo is not as agile as he used to be and was beaten to easily at times especially from long distance.

The goalkeeping situation has slipped under the radar

Jason Steele would have been a major summer target for me

As for Right Back what has plenty of cover got to do with it if all three options are at best average it will still remain a weakness.

Simon I disagree
Goalkeeping lapses cist us dear last seaso.

More signings in January? Wow, let's have a look who at who the Leagues 1 and 2 are letting go next summer cos they'll be free.
I reckon we should get that Wallace from Burnley. He'd be great on the chicken wing and he could take turns with David Grandad Dunn at going to the KFC for our half time chow-down.
Bargain bucket for the bargain basementers.

Fair comment, (no pun intended).

I would also agree with the theory behind FFP provided that every club in each division had spending capped to a set maximum level per annum, with point deduction penalties for any discrepancies rather than fines and transfer embargo's.

But that isn't how it's set up, just look at the money sloshing around the PL right now. FFP is basically there to make the rich clubs richer while the rest flounder, the inevitable outcome will be a franchised European Super League in the non too distant future.

Far fetched? Sky have launched Sky Sports 5 for next season, which is dedicated to European football.

What affect does applying fines to a club already in breach of the rules? It makes the club even more financially unstable., a transfer embargo, ditto.

But a points deduction for the upcoming season would be just as painful.
